How do I obtain continuing education credit?

To obtain credit, the video lecture must be watched in its entirety, and the quiz must be passed with 80% or higher. You DO NOT have to choose the credit type or enter any user information UNTIL AFTER you have successfully passed the quiz, and only if you want to obtain credit for the video lecture.

Here’s how it works: At the conclusion of the video presentation, a dialogue box will appear prompting you to proceed to the quiz. Once the quiz has been passed, you can choose your desired credit type, and enter the information necessary for the credit to be valid and produce a completion certificate.

After submitting the user information form, a certificate will be generated based on the credit type you have chosen. Following the prompts will allow you to download the certificate which you should keep for your records. Additionally, the information that you entered into the form will be saved in our submission database to verify with the accrediting body that you have completed the continuing education activity. (Your information is only used for proof of completion and to notify you of additional educational opportunities.)
